yay!! again remember to take it easy and just go one step and a time, depending on how intrusive the surgery was it may take a while for you to recover fully (when I had my knee surgery in 2018, where the surgeon had to put my patella back together and reattach ligaments, it took me about 5 months of physical therapy to be able to walk without my full leg brace) but don't let that discourage you! you just keep on going like the strong person I know you are :blush:

Thank you so much! 💜 yes, it certainly will take a bit of time and I know I'll have to be patient. It was fairly intrusive, they had to screw my fibula back together lol. It'll probably take a similar amount of time for me as well! Thank you again for your encouragement 😊
 
why does everyone else have perfect hair while im left with an unruly mess, no matter what i do it ends up looking bad. i used to have curly hair but nowadays my hair can barley hold a wave. i have limp straight hair and idk what to do with it.
 
Finally done w/ book 3 of the Wheel of Time series, The Dragon Reborn. On to book 4, The Shadow Rising.
 
Random stings and twinges in my body. Is it a nerve? my ovaries? my kidneys? am I dying? At least I know it’s not my appendix since it’s already gone.
 
Lofi hip-hop isn't so bad. I used to not be able to stand more than 5 min. of this type of music. Today, I didn't know what to listen to so I tried listening again. Now I'm an hour in.
 
I was so bored that I decided to go to Brewster's section and look back at the older threads, more specifically the ones from 2015. It made me wonder how the moderators were able to put up with so much rule-breaking stuff happening back then. In fact, I'm pleasantly surprised how Chris was already a moderator during that time. I'm pretty sure it's a huge sigh of relief for him that he doesn't have to put up with so much craziness on a frequent basis nowadays lol. Because let me tell you, some things made me raise my eyebrows a few times. I obviously didn't join the forums until a few years later in 2018, so I don't know what the vibe was like at the time.

Is it okay to mention this? I hope so.

You should’ve seen 2016 with all of that political drama, lol. It’s always hectic during an election.
 
On one hand I kind of wish I joined the site earlier. Especially when I look at the mote of flame collectibles. But having heard stories about how chaotic it was, I might have just left back then so maybe it's best that I joined later. Things definitely seem a lot calmer now.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if the rules and moderation here were a lot more "relaxed" or "loose" back then (as in there was more freedom of speech and such). Many websites nowadays just seem more... surveiled (that can be both a good and a bad thing).

Yes, as someone who was active back then this is the truth. Other veterans of the site will tell you the same. Moderation is a lot more strict these days (that being said, I hadn't received a warning for like 1-2 years once I came back. Probably because I'm not someone who usually breaks the rules).
 
How did I do repeat 12 hour shifts last week and come in today thinking "wow I missed working". Textbook Stockholm
 
I’m getting my first VR headset in two days as a belated birthday gift. It’ll be an Oculus Quest 2 since I want to dip my toes in without spending a ton. I will be going with the 256gb model since it doesn’t let you upgrade storage for some reason. The first thing I’m trying on the Oculus Quest 2 will be Wander. I liked navigating Google Earth when I tried the VR café, so this’ll be the next best thing. As for games I’m going with Beat Saber and Resident Evil 4. Of the games I saw those two looked the most fun.
 
I just realized last night it doesn’t give you the option to ignore staff members. And no, I wasn’t trying to ignore one. I just hovered over their name.

Basically correct. I mean I guess some stuff were needed but I also feel the site is more strict for good or bad these days.
